Clean up notebook 01: Remove installation guards and update memory terminology
- Remove all installation error handling and guards - package should install successfully in CI - Simplify installation to just install the package directly - Remove all mock classes and error handling workarounds - Update 'short-term memory' to 'working memory' throughout - Use real classes directly without fallbacks - Cleaner, more confident approach that expects things to work
